Nintendo Switch 2 – First-look trailer [Official]

I'm excited for backward compatibility. Finally, I can experience the Korok Forest at 12 fps instead of the standard 8.

I am not sure about the exposed connector on the side of the system that inserts into the Joycon. I could see a kid jamming the controller onto the system at a bad angle and breaking it.

So basically the same thing with upgraded hardware?

Hm, Mario Kart 9 seems to look pretty similar to MK8. I had hoped for a new art direction / style.

Woah the lawsuit company that makes games on the side did a thing other then filing lawsuits?

Doesn't matter, I won't be spending any more money on Nintendouch products.

They ruined enough fan projects for me to start hating them.

And I have not even touched the subject of the calculated breaking point in the original Switch, better known as Joy-Cons.

The biggest turnoff for me is that it has no Oled screen. Why downgrade to an LCD from an Oled Nintendo?! Steam deck Oled it is then ☁️⚙️

Honestly, I'm a little concerned. Nintendo almost always tries something new and innovative. This just looks like a hardware upgrade, which is good, but not what keeps them ahead of their competitors. The Steam Deck is already encroaching on the Switch's territory, and it's only a matter of time before Playstation and Xbox try something similar (assuming Microsoft doesn't just give up on consoles and just make PCs). I was expecting something no one else would try, like a duel-screen that could function like a Wii U and a DS.

Maybe this is what the average normie wants, but this feels like Nintendo's least innovative console yet.

The JoyCon mouse theory is looking pretty solid now

Man, the lackadaisical reveal. Hilarious.

Also, the Youtube video is called "Switch 2 First Look". I see what you did there, Nintendo.

Thank fuck it has a good naming system and they stuck with a winning formula this time. Let's just reuse this hardware design for another decade or two until AR and holodecks are ready to take over

I never bought the first Switch, so this is just another thing I won't buy.

Obligatory fuck Nintendo.

Please have analog triggers, pleeeaaasssee

I like the design a bit more, but it's nothing new, rather an upgrade to the switch. That's fine for me. As long as tge switch 2 is a bit more durable i would be happy. Let's see if that will be the case.

For those curious about the internal hardware: https://youtu.be/KoN1ZdnreNM?si=QlhXmD4SQDOyWO5q

Been like 8 years I kind of thought it would be a little different but the if it ain't broke don't fix it approach has made a lot of money for people in the past I suppose.

They moved the charging port to the top!

Finally! This makes me very happy :)

Looks good! 🤩

I wonder how much power it’ll have

I hope Ring Fit is backwards compatible!

I love the form factor and size. Apparently it can handle 4K gaming, too. But the only game I want to play on this is Animal Crossing. I'll hold out for that. Might as well get the AC special edition switch too.... Hehehe....

It's bigger!

I like the blue and pink accent colours. Looks fresh!
